Discussion today that I'd probably be banished first if I ever went on The Traitors. I'd like to think it's because I'm smart and a bit of a threat, but I know it was because I'd do something weird like singing Three Bean Salad jingles

My opinion counts for very little, but I think this series was an absolute triumph. Mike and Rose are perfect for this, the contestants have been great, and Anita may possibly be one of my favourite TM contestants ever @channel4tv.bsky.social
